If you have an ironing board and a piece of plywood or a hollow core door, you can lay the door or wood on the ironing board and lay your quilt sandwich across it. Clamp it to your wood or door (you can sometimes get a damaged door at Lowe's or Home Depot for $5.00) and baste the center section. Move the quilt sandwich to the left or right, clamp it down and baste that section, then move to the left or right and finish basting it. The ironing board means you don't have to bend over as it is adjustable in height. Or, if you have a table with straight legs, cut 4 sections of large PVC pipe and drill holes through it at the height you want your work surface to be. Screw a stove bolt through the holes. Lower the table legs onto the stove bolts and you will have elevated your table to a comfortable working height and the table legs have not been harmed.
